Chapter 680: War Breaks Out in Jizhou

This time, Zhang Yan will personally lead 20,000 troops to defend Zhending. Even if the two outermost cities are lost, he will use the four cities in the second-line area to wear down the spirit of Yuan Shao's army. In this way, the safety of the six innermost cities of the Black Mountain Army can be guaranteed. If these six cities are lost, the Black Mountain Army can only hide in the mountains and become bandits.

After listening to Zhang Yan's arrangement, all the leaders were convinced and soon took orders and left, ready to go to war.

Two days later, Huangfu Chaobo and his party finally successfully joined the 20,000 Jizhou troops led by Zhang He in Xiangguo County, and then the army rested for a day in Xiangguo. After waiting for the 1,000 cavalrymen who assisted in the defense of Zhaojia Village in Xiangcheng, Huangfu Chaobo handed over 20,000 horses to Zhang He, and then the convoy continued to travel south, and they will rush to Liyang Port. Then they took the big ship of the Sizhou Navy back to Luoyang.

Five days later, the convoy finally arrived in Liyang. At this time, Zhou Tai had already led the navy to wait here. It took the army a day to board the ship, and then headed for Luoyang.

At the end of May, the people of Zhaojia Village and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of Huangfu Chaobo finally rushed back to Luoyang.

At this time, in Jizhou, Changshan State suddenly broke out, and the Black Mountain Army, which had been silent for more than a year, suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the cities of Changshan State. For a time, several cities close to Yuan Shao were attacked by the Black Mountain Army. Within ten days, the entire Changshan State was occupied by the Black Mountain Army.

Subsequently, the Black Mountain Army stepped up the repair of the city walls and trained soldiers and horses. At the same time, a large number of population and materials were sent to various counties closer to the Taihang Mountains.

Almost at the same time, the Yellow Turbans, who had occupied Lingshou County and Puwu County, suddenly attacked Nanxing Tang County, and Xintianyou, who occupied Shangquyang County and Wangdu County, also sent troops to Tang County.

Several families sent out troops at the same time as if they had discussed it, which made Yuan Shao, who was far away in Nanpi, stunned. Because although Yuan Shao was also preparing to send troops to the two countries, the mobilization of troops and horses had just begun, and the troops and supplies had not yet arrived. But within ten days, the northern part of Changshan State and Zhongshan State had already become the possession of others.

This news made Yuan Shao furious. With an order, the troops and supplies of the three counties under his jurisdiction were quickly assembled and sent to various places in the north of Anping State and Julu. It was just that it would take half a month for all his troops and supplies to arrive, and by then, the daylily would be cold.

Seeing that the fire in Jizhou had been ignited by himself, Huangfu Chaobo no longer looked there. I believe that with his own reminder, Zhang Yan should be able to fight Yuan Shao for a longer time. You know, in history, Yuan Shao did not deal with Zhang Yan until his death.

After conquering most of the counties in Changshan, Zhang Yan found Cheng Xiong again and spent twice the price to buy another 2,000 large yellow crossbows from Huangfu Chaobo. I believe that he will definitely give Yuan Shao a big surprise at that time.

However, at this time, Huangfu Chaobo really had no time to care about them. After returning to Luoyang, there were piles of government affairs to deal with. It took a few days to deal with the things. Another thing was put on the agenda, that is, the matter of Huang Xu and Zhao Yu.

Because they had received news from Zhao Yun in advance that the two brothers had agreed to their sister and Huang Xu, so after the old Taoist Lou Gui saw the good journey and auspicious day, the old man Lu Zhi was the matchmaker and went to Zhao Feng's house on behalf of Huang Zhong to propose marriage. Then of course, Zhao Feng agreed.

Afterwards, Huangfu Chaobo ordered Huang Xu to rush back to Luoyang from Longhua to prepare for the wedding. Of course, Huangfu Chaobo only started the wedding, and the rest was left to the two old men Lou Gui and Lu Zhi to arrange. However, because Huang Zhong's family had always lived in the general's mansion, a house next to the general's mansion was specially awarded to Huang Zhong for Huang Xu's wedding. Of course, the residence in the general's mansion was still reserved for a few people, mainly because Huangfu Chaobo felt that it was boring for Huang Zhong and Huang Wudie to live alone, so he let them live in the general's mansion from time to time.

A few days later, Huang Xu rushed back to Luoyang from Longhua, and then he was busy preparing for the wedding for a while.

More than half a month later, on June 18th, Huangfu Chaobo held a wedding for Huang Xu and Zhao Yu in Luoyang City.

Huang Xu's wedding did not alarm outsiders, only Huangfu Chaobo's own subordinates came to attend, after all, he was just the son of Huangfu Chaobo's sworn brother. However, Zhao Zilong, Zongheng Tianxia and other players in the alliance came to Luoyang to attend the wedding. In particular, the senior leaders of the Zilong Club took this opportunity to come and have a close contact with Zhao Yun.

After the lively wedding, Huangfu Chaobo gathered all the allies together again. This time, they gathered in an imperial garden in Luoyang Palace. Because the palace did not suffer too much damage, and Huangfu Chaobo also tidied it up after taking over Luoyang, and always arranged people to maintain it, so the various buildings inside are still relatively intact.

This time, Zhao Zilong and others just wanted to take a look inside, so Huangfu Chaobo also agreed with everyone's opinion. For the palace, in real life, everyone has visited it, but they have never seen it in the game. This also happened to let everyone grow up.

The day after the wedding, Huangfu Chaobo invited all the allies, and then a group of people entered the imperial city in the name of entering the imperial city to inspect the weapons workshop. After a brief look in the imperial city, Huangfu Chaobo led everyone into the palace.

In fact, there is nothing to see in Ruling's palace because no one lives there. It is just like the Forbidden City in later generations, just to satisfy everyone's curiosity.

After a circle in the palace, everyone stopped in a small pavilion. Everyone found a seat and sat down, and then chatted about everything. After a while, seeing that everyone had talked about it, Huangfu Chaobo signaled that everyone should get to the point.

First, everyone talked about their own development.

Huangfu Chaobo didn't say much, but just mentioned the situation in Longhua. According to their plan, Longhua will develop into a county. Of course, these are just long-term plans.

Next is Zongheng Tianxia. Since he attacked Yuan Shu with Huangfu Chaobo's army, he has made a lot of money, occupied three county towns, and emptied one county town. Now it can be said that he is full of righteousness. After withdrawing his troops, Zongheng Tianxia appointed Huan Jie as the county magistrate of Ye County and He Yi as the county lieutenant to run Ye County with all his strength. He himself was the magistrate of Duyang County, and Chen Dao was appointed as the county lieutenant, leading 5,000 combat soldiers, 2,000 white-consuming soldiers, 3,000 defending soldiers, as well as thousands of elite auxiliary soldiers and more than 20,000 players to guard Duyang to defend against possible attacks from Nanyang Wenxiang.
